When this artifact enters, look at the top four cards of your library. Put two of them into your hand and the rest into your graveyard. You lose 2 life.
2, T, Collect evidence 3: Each opponent loses 3 life unless they discard a card or sacrifice a creature. (To collect evidence 3, exile cards with total mana value 3 or greater from your graveyard.)
While resolving Polygraph Orb's last ability, your opponent chooses a card to be discarded without revealing it, chooses a creature to be sacrificed, or chooses to do neither. Then that player discards that card, sacrifices that creature, or loses 3 life. Your opponent can always choose to lose 3 life, even if they have cards to discard or creatures to sacrifice.

In a multiplayer game, each opponent in turn order makes their choice once, then all of the actions occur simultaneously. Opponents will know choices made by earlier opponents when making their choices, although a card chosen to be discarded this way isn't revealed until it's discarded.
